in the near future, givingUnfortunately, Canadian diplomats have repeatedly demonstrated that, although they support Ukraine, they have only a limited interest in resolving current tensions.that might be brought to bear, sunk costs of development assistance, and an increasing military presence. Obvious commitments come from Canada’s membership in NATO, more than any fundamental belief that protecting Ukraine is vital to Canadian interests.
Canada is one of few states that hasn’t formally expressed a willingness to narrow underlying rifts with Moscow. Along with the U.K. and the U.S., for example, it’s chosen to work outside of NATO in some important ways., which, initially, at least, was intended to introduce professionalism to Ukraine’s forces. Canada joined the Commission when Jason Kenney was Canada’s Defence minister, despite concern over corruption in the Ukrainian military.
The deployment of troops based on the first justification places Canadian troops in a dangerous situation for nothing more than political symbolism. In other words, if Moscow decides to attack Ukraine, a small team of Canadian special forces will do little to shift the balance of power in favour of Kyiv or NATO.
Canada’s international standing is unlikely to be enhanced. That’s because Canada isn’t part of the Normandy Format, nor the Trilateral Contact Group. It hasn’t been an active participant in the Minsk II talks, and its ministers have rarely referred to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe that brokered Minsk II.which they’re not. Her department doesn’t have the gravitas — nor, apparently, the mandate — to engage with Russia directly.
